Bread Flour: US Cups to Grams (g) & Ounces (oz) Conversion
Convert volumes of bread flour measured in US cups to their approximate weight in metric grams (g) and imperial/US ounces (oz). Bread flour typically has a higher protein content and can be denser than all-purpose flour.

Important Considerations for Bread Flour:
The weight of 1 US cup of bread flour is often cited around **130-136 grams per cup** (approx. 4.6-4.8 ounces) when using the "spoon and level" method. It can be slightly heavier than all-purpose flour by volume due to higher protein content.
As with all flours, scooping directly from the bag can result in a much heavier cup.
For consistent bread making, **measuring bread flour by weight (grams or ounces) with a kitchen scale is highly recommended.** This ensures accurate flour-to-liquid ratios.
